Healthy banana and walnut loaf is the perfect accompaniment to your coffee/tea break. It's delicious and easy to make with a superb moist texture. Filled with crunchy walnuts it's also a great budget cake for sharing with friends!
Preheat oven to 180C/350F and grease a 20cm x 12.5cm / 8” x 5” loaf tin. I usually just spray a couple of times with low cal cooking spray and spread that around with a piece of kitchen towel. Line the tin with greaseproof paper allowing it hang over the edges.
Sift all of the dry ingredients, the flours, bicarbonate of soda, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, sugar and walnuts into a large mixing bowl, or stand mixer bowl.
In a separate bowl, add the wet ingredients by mashing the bananas first with a potato masher or fork, then add the yogurt, eggs and oil then mix together.
Pour the wet ingredients into the larger bowl with the dry ingredients. Fold all of the ingredients together either using the stand mixer paddle attachment or a spatula.
Pour cake mixture into loaf tin and bake for 30 - 40 minutes until well risen and golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly in the tin before removing and transferring to a wire baking rack to cool completely.
Once completely cooled store in an airtight container.
